Well earned. I was overjoyed to find another entry that went in a similar direction to mine. The flow is excellent (and funny in the one spot you deliberately made it clunky).

Just like Biden is buying votes with debt forgiveness, so am I by awarding this 6.

    Lol!! Your ?campaign contribution? is very much appreciated! I'm honored to receive your six.

    I LOVED your poem, so I am equally overjoyed by the comparison!

Alas, it must be a virtual six as I am all sixed-out this week.

Loved your witty and quite unique take on the Adventures of Number Six.

I recently found out that someone suggested to Jeff that we be rewarded an extra six for special circumstances like meeting a Milestone goal. I sure hope he wants to put into practice.

Thank you for sharing!

****** for you, Jess, although the true rating may only say 5. Alas, I'm one of those who has exhausted my supply of 6s before reading this. I would have waited to next Sunday to replenish my supply and would have rated it then, but I noticed the contest would be over before that, so judges, if you are reading the comments, THIS SHOULD BE A 6! Did you get that? A 6 as in ******.

All kidding aside, this really is a 6-level poem with wit, charm, and PERFECT rhyme and especially meter! My kind of poem. I just loved it. A 6 all the way, judges! - MM

What a fun poem - I enjoyed every little bit of it, finding it clever and witty and very humorously written, while maintaining good control over rhyme and metre. Sending my best wishes for the contest.

This is clever. But there is one thing a nice young girl like you should know. Men NEVER do what you tell them, unless of course you offer an incentive. Maybe, just maybe, we could strike a deal. Next RULE. Never make a deal with strange men.
Really, this was a most entertaining read. Well done. I bet you've received some weird replies.

This is great fun and a wonderful read in your perfectly metered verse. Love all the dialogue here amid the humour and bemusement of your widespread generous offerings. I hope you'll accept a mere 5* from me because, sadly, I have nothing more except my best wishes for the contest! Take care Debbie

Okay, this does it. I am not even going to try to compete in this contest. This is certainly the winning entry. And it deserves a SIX. Yes, I will give it a SIX and look for another contest to enter.

Well, you've stolen my last six this morning. What a delight this was to read - I know it's satirical, but I can totally see it playing out for one who is on this site reviewing constantly. When I begin awarding everyone and everything with a six, I'll know to step back, lol!

Seriously, the rhyming was great, and it made me chuckle as I read it. I could imagine drawing six stars on the check my waiter dropped off instead of giving him a monetary tip:-)

Your poetry is always a pleasure to read, Jennica:-) Good luck in this contest - I think you have it nailed.

How funny and clever! I really love this poem, so much so, that if the contest hasn't already happened, you'll have my six. I'm glad l didn't enter, because next to yours, i'd be a 5 at best. :)
